When You Need Long Term Care

Long Term Care defines that very, very difficult time when a family realizes that they can no longer care for the day to day needs of one of their parents or other family members. Long Term Care services provide a Resident with all of the fundamental essentials of life and provides such additional care that may be required. At Sequoyah Pointe Living Center we do our very best to make this transition as smooth as possible and to reduce the anxiety for Residents who have never lived anywhere but their homes.

You or a loved one will need Long Term Care when you can no longer perform your daily routine in your current independent lifestyle. If you can’t prepare food, take your daily medications, dress yourself or bathe then you will need to consider Long Term Care. If you or a loved one is living with other family members who can assist you with many of those daily tasks then you may not need Long Term Care until more serious issues arise.

When Long Term Care becomes necessary, Sequoyah Pointe Living Center is ready to provide you or your loved one with the security of a home like environment with around the clock care. We prepare three meals a day and snacks in between. Most all of the time snacks are available – 24 hours a day. We do the laundry and the housekeeping. We bathe, brush teeth, groom and trim finger and toe nails. We have a barber in the building who can cut, trim, color and style your hair. We help schedule doctor appointment and treatments that need to be done out of the building. We provide all of the nursing care that can legally be performed in our Intermediate Care building. When there is an emergency that requires hospital care we make those arrangements as well.
